This week’s guest is Justin Gray, a visionary immersive audio engineer, producer, composer, and founder of Justin Gray Sound in Toronto. A true pioneer in spatial audio, Justin has been at the forefront of Dolby Atmos and immersive music technology since its early adoption, helping shape the way we experience music in three dimensions.
We explore Justin’s remarkable career journey — from working as a traditional mixer and mastering engineer to becoming one of the most sought-after experts in spatial sound. His work spans genres and formats, with credits that include remixing and mastering Snoop Dogg’s legendary Doggystyle album in Dolby Atmos — a bold reimagining of a hip-hop classic that redefines what’s possible in immersive music.
In this episode, we talk about the evolution of immersive audio, the art and technical craft behind mixing in Atmos, and how Justin balances musicality with innovation. Whether you’re a filmmaker, producer, or just someone curious about where sound is heading, this conversation offers a deep and inspiring look into the future of audio with one of the leaders in the field.
